City Council Deliberates Amid Absences and Ponderous Debates
The council met with many members absent and debated finances over a county property assessment of 5875 dollars for 1890. A street-name change from Peru street to Cornell avenue was referred to streets and alleys. Queries about Fletcher avenue improvements sparked a wrangle with the Board of Public Works. An ordinance banning impure baking powder was sent to health. The water contract and rate schedule sparked debate before passage, with revisions to be handled by the franchise committee. Decoration-day arrangements were entrusted to Gasper, Ryan, and White. The slaughterhouse ordinance was dropped, and boiler explosion liability opinions were noted. The meeting adjourned after motions.
